Decidual Cell Production of Human Placental Fibrinoid

I. AZAB, MD, H. OKAMURA, MD and ALAN BEER, MD

Abstract

Histochemical and electron microscopic study of the choriodecidual junction of the human placenta suggests selective deposition of both fibrinoid and collagen at that site. These substances are consistently located in intimate association with decidual cells, which may be responsible for their deposition. The factors at the choriodecidual junction which could stimulate a specific decidual cell secretion are reviewed.
